What Causes Pea Sized Lump Inside Wrist?

I just noticed a pea size Lump inside On My 3year olds left wrist.... It was not there this afternoon... He was joint on the trampoline so I thought maybe he injured it??? He pulls away when I touch above it (the pad muscle under the thumb above the wrist) but can move his wrist with out pain ..... Do you have any idea what this could be and should I be concerned ?? Treatment???

Pediatrician, Neonatology 's  Response
Its a ganglion. Dont manipulate it. Not to worry its not dangerous. Require no treatment now. In future if it causes pain or impair joint mobility take her to doctor.
